Natural disasters come to the world: I rely on space to farm and store goods

Chapter 83 Mutated Poplar Tree

"Okay." Lin Shanshan nodded obediently, completely different from the way she stubbornly wanted to go out.

Mo Cheng glanced at her suspiciously, feeling that his brain was a bit weak and he really couldn't understand the woman's thoughts.

When the two reached the city gate, the soldiers were already ready to go.

Mo Cheng patted the door of the first car and said, "Sit with me. If there are special circumstances on the road, remember to follow the instructions."

"Of course." Lin Shanshan had participated in many search teams in her previous life and was very familiar with this situation.

She knows where to do what and what to do!

The gate of the base opened quickly, and the team led by Mo Cheng, as the first team to set off on the expedition from Phoenix Base, gradually moved away.

Lin Shanshan turned her head and looked at the base farther and farther away. Except for the soldiers standing guard, there was no explorer there.

It seems that everyone is scared by the second red rain.

"What are you looking at?" Mo Cheng's deep voice sounded in his ears.

Lin Shanshan was stunned and replied: "Nothing."

The two of them sat together, and she smelled the vague scent of soap on Mo Cheng's body again, which made her feel a little cautious.

Mocheng is also a little constrained. Although the road on this trip is smooth, the vehicle must avoid zombies and beware of other situations, so the stability inside the vehicle is not very good.

The car shook, and the people inside naturally shook with it. Their arms came into contact from time to time, which made his heart beat faster.

Mo Cheng's Adam's apple moved and warned, "Be careful, don't knock your head."

"good"

Lin Shanshan tapped her chin, looking at the road ahead with a bad feeling.

They had now left the base city, and the surrounding area was no longer surrounded by deserted rocks and debris. Seeing that the car was about to enter the road ahead, Lin Shanshan immediately stopped.

"Stop the car! Mocheng, let them stop!"

The road ahead was eerily quiet, with no zombies at all. Even the scattered abandoned cars were gone. The poplar trees planted on both sides of the road were full of life, and their green leaves were a sight I had never seen before.

It's already November, how can the leaves still be green!!!

"Boom, boom."

The next second they stopped, the originally flat road suddenly sunk deeply.

It is conceivable that at the speed they were driving, if they had not stopped, everyone, including their cars, would have been sucked into the pit.

Everyone stared in front of them dumbfounded. The roots of those seemingly ordinary poplar trees were actually stringing out from the ground, like a thousand-year-old python, which was frightening.

"Withdraw, the rear car becomes the front car and get back immediately!" Mo Cheng made a decisive decision.

He didn't know how many meters these tree roots could extend, so he could only keep the vehicles away as quickly as possible.

Lin Shanshan frowned and looked at the poplar trees with their roots flying wildly. The only things they had mutated and evolved were their roots, stumps and branches. They were no different from the previous poplar trees.

These things look very lethal, but in fact, as long as you don't fall into their trap and keep a distance, it's easy to get rid of them.

Because their roots, once broken, will take a long time to grow, which means that as long as they distance themselves and get rid of these flying roots, the danger posed by the mutated poplar trees will be eliminated.

At this moment, Mo Cheng's keen judgment has brought them out of danger.

Lin Shanshan took out the machete from the space and held it firmly in her hand, "Mo Cheng, if we want to get through, we have to cut down these tree roots first."

"good."

Mo Cheng had the same idea as hers, and thunder and lightning began to gather at his fingertips, and he threw them away with crackling sounds.

The tree roots that were arrogant a second ago turned into charcoal in the blink of an eye, leaving Shen Ling stunned.

Yahui, who was following him, poked him to stop him from being dazed.

Seeing this, Xiao He also began to gather lightning balls and smashed them in with all his strength.

Lin Shanshan cut off the tree roots with a knife, quickly jumped to Mo Cheng, and urged, "I just found something wrong when I used the superpower. You asked the wood superpower to back off. These tree roots seem to absorb the wood superpower. energy."

In fact, it will definitely be absorbed, so she uses a machete instead of a superpower.

Mo Cheng nodded, quickly asked the wood-type superpower to stop, and began to gather lightning to attack the tree roots again.

These tree roots seemed to be afraid of the power of thunder and lightning, and it seemed that without the blessing of the wood-type superpowers, their attack power was getting weaker and weaker.

After a while, an empty space appeared in front of me.

Those poplar trees have lost their protection!

What a great opportunity! Mo Cheng thought to himself, and immediately commanded the people with thunder powers to get on the car and rush towards the center of Yangshu.

"Boom——"

With a loud noise, the dust in the center of the poplar tree was blown away, almost blinding its eyes.

Lin Shanshan wiped it randomly and stared straight ahead without blinking.

The smoke dissipated, leaving only sporadic flames still burning, and the vehicle where Mo Cheng was located gradually appeared.

"Huh." Lin Shanshan finally let go of her worried heart. She never expected that Mo Cheng would be so bold. After discovering the shortcomings of the mutated poplar tree, he dared to rush over without hesitation.

She had to admire Mo Cheng's keen judgment and his decisive execution. Such a person was really terrifying.

Mo Cheng was not going to take a rest and said loudly: "Everyone get in the car and continue setting off."

Lin Shanshan also quickly followed.

After sitting down, Mo Cheng had time to discuss the mutated poplar tree with Lin Shanshan.

He weighed the chopped poplar root, packed it and stuffed it under the seat. He whispered, "Now it is certain that the second red rain can cause plants to mutate."

You must know that during the previous month's outing, they passed by many times and found nothing unusual.

"Thank you very much just now. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid everyone would"

Mo Cheng was a little annoyed. He had been paying attention to his surroundings but found nothing unusual.

Lin Shanshan didn't know what he was thinking. If she had known, she would have said that this was not Mocheng's problem. After all, the speed was too fast. If she hadn't known about it in advance, who would have noticed that something was wrong.

This is also the reason why survivors who survived zombies in their previous lives fell into the hands of mutated plants.

They are really hard to guard against.

"It's okay. I happened to find something wrong with those leaves. They were terribly green." Lin Shanshan explained with a smile that the reason why the problem was solved so smoothly this time was mainly because Mo Cheng trusted her. If it were anyone else, he probably wouldn't listen to her.

She looked at the thoughtful Mo Cheng and continued to guide: "Did you notice that when we arrived, it was quiet around the poplar tree, and there was not a single zombie or animal."

Mo Cheng frowned.

"Is it possible that these poplar trees, or mutated plants, will also evolve through phagocytosis?"

Mo Cheng remained silent.

If so, I'm afraid human survival will be even more difficult!

Seeing that he paid attention to this issue, Lin Shanshan stopped and sat up straight without saying much.
